capri-boy Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Will believe it when someone somewhere has one in stock. The boat has sailed on mod .8 too, I see racers getting the mod 1 option parts to replace the .8 with other brands. Lightened output cups would have been nice like the pro buggy/truggy's of old.
